Not the same person.

Wonder if they're related though?

We also don't know for sure that he was the justice involved in the case. There are 3 current Town Justices listed, 2 of which were elected in 2002. Could very well have been one of the previous occupants, not Crummey.

From Town of Colonie Department Directory.
Richard T. DiStefano, Town Justice 1/02-12/05
Peter Crummey, Town Justice 1/00-12/03
Mary Sweeney, Town Justice 1/02-12/05

I'll see if I can wayback machine the website to 2001.

Hmmmm. That first name looks familiar. I think he was a FOB/FOH.

Philip Caponera, Town Justice 1/98-12/01
Peter Crummey, Town Justice 1/00-12/03
Mary Sweeney, Town Justice 1/98-12/01

Ping to Alamo-girl for the FOB/FOH question.
